Wow.

[nickcarraway]

Is it true this meeting inspired Sinatra's #1 hit, Something Stupid?

[Fedora]

ROFLMHO! :-)

True, there are some very interesting ways things get done in Nevada.

But, unlike how things are done in 49 other states, in Nevada, they actually get done.

-bttt-

It's a good thing Reid is a Democrat-a Republican couldn't survive with this kind of past.

[akorahil]

That is uncanny-
I just heard that song (As I listen to The Chairman at work) about two minutes before I read your post.

Hary is a good family man...crime family man that is.

[Leisler]

Transaction cost under organized crime are lower than government. After all it's not 'organized' government is it? The mob has great incentive to be quick and efficient. The government has just the opposite. You could even say organized crime is pro growth, pro business.

"That April Sinatra was arrested on charges of assaulting and battering a reporter..."

Damn, always did like his music, now I LIKE HIM EVEN MORE!!

[ozzymandus]

To summarize, harry reid is a mobbed-up, bribe-taking crook. How about a little of that famous "investigative journalism", MSM?

[Fedora]

ROFL! He's trying to live up to Don Corelone's injunction: "Do you spend time with your family? Good. Because a man that doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man."

[Fedora]

ROFL! I have to clean the coffee off my keyboard now. . . :-)

Good summary!--I would've saved myself a lot of time if I would've just said that :-)

The more I hear about Reid and his mob connections, the more I believe that he was the inspiration for the crooked Nevada senator in "Godfather II". (I wonder if he ever woke up with a bloody, dead, call-girl in his bed?)

LOL! That character seems to have been inspired by Senator Pat McCarran, perhaps combined with a hit-and-run incident involving Senator Styles Bridges. But when I watch it, it reminds me more of Reid, too :-)
